<div dir="ltr">Hello!<br><br>Thanks...I set up a Samba mount, which works ok, except that Asterisk confuses a wave file as a wav49 file.

</div>No, they're both designed as filesystems, which makes typical things like<br>
locking possible. SSH is designed as a communications medium, and someone<br>
has hacked filesystem support on top of it (poorly, apparently). SSHFS was<br>
never designed to be used in server production environments and should not<br>
be used there.<br>

</div>There is not. Use a real filesystem that supports file locking (or really,<br>
file linking, which is how the locking is implemented) procedures.<br>
